Lauren Boluyt, 13 of Sand Lake, sent us several photos of wildlife this week.

“I love taking pictures of wildlife!” she wrote.

The photo of the chipmunk, which she said was her favorite, was taken at Brower Park campground where she was vacationing with family. Photos of seagulls and a swan were also taken there.

“The butterfly picture was taken at 21 Mile and Pennington, where there were thousands of butterflies in a freshly cut hayfield,” explained Lauren. “It was beautiful!”

Thanks, Lauren for some great photos. Keep up the good work!
